AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 vs Intel Arc G3 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark comparison between the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 and the Intel Arc G3 is defined by data availability. The database contains a full suite of PassMark test results for the AMD processor, while the Intel Arc G3 has no recorded benchmark scores. This absence of data for the Intel part means a direct comparison of measured performance is not possible. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 delivers a multi-thread score of 25889, a single-thread score of 4029, and an average benchmark score of 52901. Its percentile ranking among all CPUs is 91, indicating that it outperforms the vast majority of tested processors.

The AMD part’s individual test results provide a detailed picture of its capabilities. In data compression, it scores 327891, and in data encryption, it scores 16055. Extended instruction handling results in a score of 24193, while finding prime numbers yields a score of 71. Floating point math performance is measured at 55799, and integer math at 87940. The physics test shows a score of 1210, random string sorting results in 34801, and the single-thread score is confirmed at 4029. These figures establish a robust baseline for the AMD processor, but without any recorded scores for the Intel Arc G3, no head-to-head statistical analysis can be performed. The database shows zero wins for each processor in this matchup due to the missing Intel benchmark data.

The nearest rivals for the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 offer context for its performance. The AMD Ryzen 5 9500F has an average score of 52873, which is 0.1% lower than the P164’s average of 52901. The Intel Xeon 634 scores 52974, placing it 0.1% higher. The AMD EPYC 7313P achieves 53206, which is 0.6% higher, and the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X scores 53288, 0.7% higher. These deltas are minimal, indicating that the P164 sits in a highly competitive performance band. The data shows a processor that is statistically level with these established parts, with a percentile ranking of 91 confirming its position in the upper tier of all tested CPUs. The absence of Intel Arc G3 benchmark results means the data cannot confirm or deny its performance claims, leaving its standing entirely unverified.

Architecture Differences

The two processors diverge significantly in their underlying design. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 uses a 4 nm process node from TSMC, while the Intel Arc G3 uses a 3 nm process node from Intel’s own foundry. The AMD part has 8 cores and 16 threads, whereas the Intel part has 14 cores and 14 threads. This indicates a difference in threading strategy: AMD uses simultaneous multithreading, doubling its thread count, while Intel does not. The AMD codename is Gorgon Point, and its generation is listed as Ryzen AI Embedded (Zen 5 / Zen 5c). The Intel codename is Panther Lake, with the generation listed as Arc G3 (Panther Lake).

Cache structures also differ notably. The AMD processor allocates 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 8 MB of L3 cache. The Intel processor allocates 192 KB of L1 cache per core, 2.5 MB of L2 cache per core, and 18 MB of shared L3 cache. This gives Intel a larger total cache footprint, particularly in L3, which is shared across all cores. The AMD part has a die size of 233 mm², while the Intel die size is not recorded in the database. Transistor counts are not recorded for either processor.

Memory support differs as well. The AMD processor supports both DDR5 and LPDDR5X memory, while the Intel processor supports only LPDDR5X. Both use a dual-channel memory bus. The measured memory bandwidth is 89.6 GB/s for AMD and 136.5 GB/s for Intel, showing a substantial advantage for the Intel part in theoretical memory throughput. The AMD processor supports ECC memory, while the Intel processor does not. PCIe connectivity also differs: AMD provides Gen 4 with 16 lanes (CPU only), while Intel provides Gen 5 with 4 lanes (CPU only). Integrated graphics are present on both, with AMD using the Radeon 880M and Intel using the Arc B370. The base clock for AMD is 2.00 GHz with a boost clock of 5.00 GHz, while Intel has a base clock of 1.90 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. The thermal design power is 28 watts for AMD and 25 watts for Intel.

The Verdict

The data presents a clear but one-sided picture. The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 is a fully benchmarked processor with a percentile ranking of 91 and an average score of 52901. Its performance is statistically level with the AMD Ryzen 5 9500F, Intel Xeon 634, AMD EPYC 7313P, and AMD Ryzen 9 7900X, all within a range of 0.7% in average score. This is a strong result for a mobile processor, confirming its ability to compete with desktop and server parts in the same performance band.

The Intel Arc G3 has no benchmark data. Its percentile ranking of 50 is a placeholder based on an average score of 0, which reflects the absence of recorded tests rather than actual performance. The architecture specifications for Intel are interesting: more cores, more cache, and higher memory bandwidth. However, the database cannot verify any performance implications from these specs. The measured memory bandwidth of 136.5 GB/s is a factual advantage for Intel, and the 3 nm process node indicates a newer manufacturing technology. But without benchmark results, these specifications remain unvalidated in terms of real-world performance.

For users choosing between these two processors, the data supports the AMD part. It has proven, measurable performance across a wide range of tests, including data compression, encryption, floating point math, and integer math. Its single-thread score of 4029 and multi-thread score of 25889 provide concrete evidence of capability. The Intel part offers a compelling specification sheet, but the database contains no evidence of its execution. The choice based on recorded data is the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164, as it is the only processor in this comparison with verified benchmark results.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P164 wins in every measured category by default, as the Intel Arc G3 has no recorded benchmark scores. The AMD part shows particular strength in data compression with a score of 327891, which is its highest individual result. Data encryption at 16055, extended instructions at 24193, and integer math at 87940 all indicate solid general-purpose processing capability. The floating point math score of 55799 and the random string sorting score of 34801 round out a comprehensive performance profile. Its single-thread score of 4029 and multi-thread score of 25889 confirm balanced performance across both lightly threaded and heavily threaded workloads.

The Intel Arc G3 wins in architectural specifications. It has 14 cores compared to 8, a larger L3 cache of 18 MB compared to 8 MB, and a higher memory bandwidth of 136.5 GB/s compared to 89.6 GB/s. It also uses a 3 nm process node versus 4 nm, and supports PCIe Gen 5 versus Gen 4. These are theoretical advantages that could translate to performance in memory-intensive or multi-threaded workloads, but the database contains no test results to confirm such outcomes. The Intel part’s higher core count, larger caches, and faster memory interface are recorded facts, but their impact remains unproven without benchmark scores.

For workloads that depend on measured performance, the AMD processor is the only option with data. For workloads that depend on raw specifications, the Intel processor offers a newer process node, more cores, more cache, and faster memory. The data does not allow a prediction of how these specifications would perform under load. The AMD part’s percentile ranking of 91 versus Intel’s 50 reflects the current state of recorded information, not the outcome of a fair test. The database records what it records, and the Intel Arc G3 has yet to produce any benchmark results.
